THE CHARM CT IaRlcATloN.

There is a great charm about irrig
 ton. As he sees the ditches tapped
 and the water spread over square after
 square of the vineyard, alfalfa field, or
 the onion bels, the visitors thoughts will involnntar;ly go hacl, to other
 scenes or fields dependent upon the
 rain supply. Where is the farmer who
 can recall to successive seasons in
 which he had the rainfall distributed
 just right for his crops? Yet here a
 turn of the hoe lets on the water and the sun prevents it from standing too long. Recently small green-winqed bug made its appearance in some of
 the vineyards of the valley and began to feed on the leaves. The remedy was at hand. Water was turned on and the vines upon which the insect had made their appearance were shak- rn. That was the end of the pest. As the farmer of Masilla never raises his voice in prayer for rain, so he do-s not have to look at the moon or study the clouds when having time comes around. Fln starts the mower in inc altaIf, when the clover-like growth is in blos som, and he stacks the forage when it IS cured eXlctly to his wish. There is no hurrying to get the start of the blacd clouds, no reop"ning of cocks CT winrows of damaged hay. If the far. mer here is in haste to market his al faIfl he puts his baling machine to work in the field and hauls the crop away to. the csrs without having had the trouble of stacking.
 As soon IS the crop of alfalfa is of the ground the water is let on and rap idly spreads it's way over the field. In a couple of days the fresh sprouts have hidden the stubhle, anl another cro- is gro"ins with rapidity which i, unknown in the clover fields further east. Only one crop takes precedence over the alfalja crop in point of profit. Tiat IS, of course, the vineyard. After ! grapes anl alfalfa, the onion crop ! ranks nproit. The y eld is enormous but more work is required, and this reduces the net profit below tn, fruit nnl the forage, Still the returns on onions. when all is considered, me such is to make an eastern f4rrper's eyes hulg".-Ncw M.x.

The Rebel BattIe-Flags.

The country has experienced quite
3 furry of excitement the past weeE
over the intention Of the war depart
ment To return 10 the late rebel states
the battle flags captured from the
confederates by the Union army dur
ING the war. 1t Is stated that these
flags. TO the number of five hundred
fOrty-fve. are stored in an attic room
Of the war department, the door of
which has been kept locked. so that
the sensibilities Of the lost cause. -
might not be shocked by public dis
play Of them. Acknowledgement
Drum Is charged with being the orig
inatOr Of the scheme. but he denies
the charge and puts the responsibility
upon the administration. As soon
as the fact was made known to the
country. numerous meetings of Grand
Army and veterans organizations ex-
pressed disapproval Of the proposed
act. and Governor Foraker of Ohio
sent 10 the president the protest OF
the thirty-nine thousand veteran-
Of that state against the return of tn
rebel flags captured by Ohio regi
ments. Proceedings TO secure an IN
junction from the United States ST.
preme court. forbidding the secret:ir.
Of war to let these flags 90 from hi.
custody, were commenced by Gener:
BOynton in behalf Of the Grand
Army, and ex-senator Boutwell, OF
Massachusetts and ex-COngressman
Shellabarger of Ohio were retained To
argue the matter. But the protest.
and denunciations that poured i'll
from the Northern States had 81
wholesome effect upon the admins
tration. for on the 18th the president
sent a letter TO the secretary Of war
resembling his approval of the war de-
partment's proposition and taking the
ground. which he might well have
done in the outset, that the return OF
the flags in the manner contemplated
Is not authorized by existing law nor
justified a. an executive act. Moth
inc less than an act of congress can
lawfully restore these flags to the
rebel states. But for the necessity
of congressional action and the Wig
oFous protests against the PROPOSE
ton. the administration would have
carried ont its purpose. The act
would have been in entire harmony
with other acts of the president to
win the favor of the --solid south "
for his secOnd-term scheme The
revocation of his order comes too
late to prevent serious injury to his
political prospects in the northern
states. The people are beginning to
realize that this administration which
claims TO represent a national par
w. Is conducted for the interests of
the whole country; or, as a prom
inent naval officer recently remarked.

Those Rebel Flags.

The following letters will explain
the course Of the president and the
authorities relative to the return of
the rebel and other battle flags to
the various states from whose reg
iments they were captured during
the battles of the war; as might be
expected the attempt to take them
from custody in Washington, where
they remain as reminders Of the late
bloody struggle, and where by right
they belong, caused great indigna-
ton in @. A. r. circles and among
the patriotic masses of the north.
1t was a most unwise and unnecces-
sarv measure on the part Of the adj
ministration. The following circular
letter was addressed by the adjutant
general Of the army to the governor
Of each state:
Sir: The president of the Unit
ed States having approved the rec
Ommendation that all the flags in
the custody of the war department
be returned to the authorities of the
respective states in which the regi-
ments which bore them were organ
lied, for such final disposition as
they may determine, l am instructed
by the Hon. Secretary of war to
make YOU, in the name Of the war
Il = -
now in this Office belonging to the
late volunteer organizations of the
state Of
In discharging this pleasant duty
l beg you will please advise me Of
your wishes in this matter. 1t is the
intention in returning each flag to
give its history as far as it is possible
to do so, stating the circumstances
of its capture or recovery. | have
the honor to be, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
L. c. Drum, Adj't General
The circular stirred up such a
breeze that the president made haste
to issue the following:
l have to-day considered with
more care than when the subject
was orally presented me the action
of your department directing letters
to be addressed to Governors of all
the states offering to return, if de-
sired, to the loyal states of the Union
flags captured during the war of the
rebellion by the Confederate forces
and afterward recovered by Govern
ment troops; and to the Confederate
states, the flags captured by the In
ion forces, all of which for many
years have been packed in boxes
and stored in the cellar and attic Of
the war department. l am of the
opinion that the return of the flags
in the manner thus contemplated IS
not authorized by existing law, nor
justified as an executive act. | re-
quest, therefore, that no further
steps be taken in the matter except
to examine and inventory these flags
and adopt proper measures for their
| preservation. ANY direction as to
the final disposition Of them should
originate with congress.
Yours truly,
